>From your description, I guess you have traced into
MimeType#match(String) to see that it instantiates a MimeType so it can

actual logic in the call is to create class variables for the types we
always compare against:

private static final MimeType MT_APPLICATION_OCTET_STREAM = new
MimeType("application/octet-stream");

if (ctype.match(MT_APPLICATION_OCTET_STREAM) ...
